verdantgardenI've said it before, but I'll said it again. Top 45 and ties are no different than before, it doesn't make LPGA membership any easier. In the past, top 20 from Q-School have higher priority than LPGA 101-125 but 21-45 have lower priority. As a result, LPGA 101-125 didn't need to play Q-School. This year, top 45 and ties will all have higher priority than LPGA 101-125; it forced the hands on LPGA 101-125 to register and play Q-Series. The total number of LPGA membership remains the same as before.

Wow - scores are MUCH higher than any of the first 7 rounds. Only 6 players under par for the day so far of those in top 45. Lilia Vu rocketed up the leaderboard with -5, way better score than anyone else so far. So - is it tougher conditions, tucked pins, or mainly nerves?

O' no, a bogey at 13. . .still a three shot lead with only four holes to play. . .Hang on Lucky 6. . . Three holes to play, now just a two shot lead as Jennifer Kupcho gets a birdie on 14. . . Kupcho gets another birdie at 15. . .now the lead is just one. . .
Lucky 6 said before this final round "There’s only 18 holes left, I’m definitely keeping an eye out on the leader and of course, it would be great if I could win,” Lee6 said after signing a 5-under par 67 scorecard. “After playing seven rounds, I’m really tired and don’t have that much energy. I’m just trying to go through the rhythm without exerting too much energy. I’m not really playing with all my strength right now.”
Don't run out of gas Lucky 6, keep your foot on the throttle!

Lucky 6 and Jennifer both par Hole # 16. . .now just two to play with Lucky 6 ahead by one. . . Lucky 6 gets another par at 17. . .will the one stroke lead be enough?. . . Lucky 6 puts the gas on and gets one final birdie at 18. . .Finishes up with a -2 and total of -18. . . Will it be good enough?. . .Don't you know Lucky 6 drew off her failure at Salon Pas and was determined this time not to repeat that heartache?
At 18-under par overall, Jeongeun Lee6 claims medalist honors at the inaugural #QSeries presented by @bluecrossnc and secures her @lpga card for 2019 #Congratulations #Road2LPGA

Lucky didn't get much coverage from Symetra on this thing given that she's a star close to the lead.

A new star is here America. . .welcome Lucky 6 to the LPGA. . . Kupcho finished with a par-birdie -17 so Lucky 6's birdie at 18 was the winning shot. . .

donI underestimated Muni; I thought she've quitted Symetra Tour long time ago but she's steadfast and rarely missed any tournaments. Best of wish to her!

awhsonLucky 6 even got paid; this world is unfair that the strong get stronger and the weak get weaker. I've to say this 8 round tournament is a lot of fun, I like it.
